1) My company started getting spam hits a few days ago on our "request a demo" page and they have not let up. I am guessing they are related, only because of timing. The attacks seem super lame to me - random emails, garbage messages, over and over. But I guess there are companies out there with weak security and those are the ones who will wind up giving up information.
2) Reading about this, I am wondering whether the attacks are so clumsy and obvious that the nuisance factor makes them newsworthy. Either that, or perhaps someone wants to drum up antagonism against China. America's allies spy on the US constantly, sometimes with incredibly damaging effects. The Jonathan Pollard case comes to mind.
- state 13y agoWe have been experiencing the same thing. Aggressive SSH logins and abusive crawling of URLs. The timing is really, really weird.
- kyllo 13y agoDo you think they're just using some kind of automated penetration testing software like Metasploit?
- anExcitedBeast 13y agoI doubt you're dealing with these guys. The original APT1 report seems to indicate the bad guys are a little more clever with their phishing, and I doubt they would get sloppier post report.
